A Journal to impart knowledge and facts |
July 22, 2015 I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done. I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them. I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC. |
![]() I bought a silicon donut pan from Amazon. Someone wanted to know if you could use it to bake bagels. I never baked bagels so today I'm going to try baking bagels. Baking bread is easier than when I was raising children. I have a bread machine to do the kneading. I wrote 500 words on "Willow" yesterday and am going to try to write more today. It is a story that has all kinds of subplots but needs some consistent movement from beginning to end. Reading a good mystery is one thing; writing one is totally something else. Happy June--write on! ![]() |
